		Nevertheless, in 1883, the petitions prompted Vanhoughnet to suggest to Prime Minister John A. Macdonald the advantages of negotiating treaty with the Athabasca-Mackenzie District Indians:
		The Indians in the unceded portions of the Territories are not numerous; but at the same time they could of course do great injury to any railway or any public work which might be constructed in their country, unless the Government had a previous understanding with them relative to the same.

		That "ad-hoc" employment agency function, Frantz said, would later pay handsome dividends -- years later, important contacts would be cultivated amongst executives and district managers who had been sent along to new jobs on the strength of Bulletin Ups.
